Known problem, just haven't had time for an update. You ought to be able to 
get around things by simply removing yum (rpm -e yum). It really isn't a 
required package, since it does the same thing as apt, more or less. The 
other fix is to enable at-testing and install python 2.4 along with the 
updated yum.
